The question I have is why breed to normals? Why not go to a Lesser, Mojo, or butter?[/QUOTE]

This is our first attempt at breeding. We bought 3 proven females and went shopping for a male. We were hoping to buy a Lesser or Mojave but found this guy and splurged!

Ahh where I am mojos are very cheap females are going for 150-200$ and the potential return is so much higher. There are a lot of mojo where I am too everybody seems to be breeding them so the demand is also low and they are hard to sell. (hence the price) There are often adults for cheap around I bought a adult female (1700gm for 200$) so you can see where my confusion came from.

The $200 1,700 gram female wasn't a mojave was it? I would expect female mojave, lesser, or butters of that size to be about as expensive as hatchling leucistics. Female maturity time is very expensive.

I know what you mean, with the yellow dorsal stripe, but if if were the dorsal stripe would more likely be a brighter yellow and more pronounced and it would have red/pink eyes.

Mojo x mojo usually have a bit of a grey like head urs looks white u will just have to find out through breeding

Yup she is, I picked her up she isn't the greatest mojo ever but she is a monster for food she can also be quite aggressive.

Thats a really, really, really good price! Im comin to visit you in canada!!!!

In all likely hood its a Lesser mojo BUT it could also be of a couple other combinations. Mocha, het russo, and the least likely phantom.

Beautiful Bp!!!!
